Seattle Day 3

mmmmmmm

Seattle Trip Day 2-Pike's MArket, Gum Wall, Harbor Cruise, Pacific Life Musuem

We started the day at Pike's Market.  It was amazing. The flowers are gorgeous and cheap..like $10-$20 for the most amazing bouquets. We stood by the cool and GROSS Gum Wall. We went on a Harbor Cruise and learned so much about Seattle.  The Pacific Life museum was so cool with a 3D movie about Hump Back Whales. Becca took us to the Troll Under the Bridge and another fantastic park where we could see the whole city and Mount Rainier.

Sometimes you can just look at a preson's face and know how their day went.
Tessa fell on her face on the way to the bus. The girls were afraid they would miss the bus so they just used the Emergency First aid kits in their backpacks to patch her up. Imagine my surprise when I arrived to volunteer at the school and found her like this.

She tried to tough it out but after I helped in all three girls' classes I took her home to put her in a shower and get her wounds all cleaned up.

Seattle Trip Day 1-Aquarium and Space Needle

We had a bunch of hotel and airline points due to Kody's planning when we were spending a ton on finishing our basement, so we decided to take Tessa and Mal with us to see Seattle (Kylie had a fun trip back East and Baylor is still a handful).  It was the girl's first trip flying.

They were so EXCITED!

When we got to Seattle we picked up our rental car and headed to Becca's apratment. She took us to get some awesome sushi!

We lucked out on this Seattle City Pass that gave us discount tickets to all th best venues in Seattle.

Our first stop was the aquarium.

We saw the most awesome fish and otters.

We got to see them feed an octopus and we stayed until almost closing and the employees let us feed the sea urchins sea weeds...it was the coolest thing ever!

Then we headed for the Space Needle.

While we waited we found these cool flowers that play music and played at this awesome park nearby.

We lucked out on some beautiful clear weather and were able to see the whole city from the top of the space needle and we planned it just right so we could be on top at sunset.

We ended with some awesome seafood at Ivar's. Tessa loved the Clam Chowder. Becca always knows the best places to eat.
